And most surely you conform (yourself) to sublime morality.
(Qur'an, 68:4)
Correct and courteous words accompanied by forgiveness are
better than charity followed by insulting words. Allah is Rich
Beyond Need, All-Forbearing. (Qur'an, 2:263)
Who could say anything better than someone who summons to
Allah and acts rightly and says, 'I am one of the Muslims'? (Qur'an,
41:33)
Those who believe and do right actions and perform prayer and
give alms, will have their reward with their Lord. They will feel
no fear and will know no sorrow. (Qur'an, 2:277)
Except for those who, after that, repent and put things right. Truly
Allah is Ever-Forgiving, Most Merciful (Qur'an, 3:89)
As for those who believe and do right actions— We impose on no
self any more than it can bear— they are the Companions of the
Garden, remaining in it timelessly, for ever. (Qur'an, 7:42)
THEY COMPETE IN DOING GOOD
We responded to him and gave him Yahya, restoring for him his
wife's fertility. They outdid one another in good actions, calling out
to Us in yearning and in awe, and humbling themselves to Us.
(Qur'an, 21:90)
Such people are truly racing towards good things, and they are the
first to reach them. (Qur'an, 23:61)
Then We made Our chosen servants inherit the Book. But some
of them wrong themselves; some are ambivalent; and some outdo
each other in good by Allah's permission. That is the great favour.
(Qur'an, 35:32)
Mankind! We created you from a male and female, and made you
into peoples and tribes so that you might come to know each other.
The noblest among you in Allah's sight is the one who best
performs his duty. Allah is All-Knowing, All-Aware. (Qur'an,
49:13)
